About this listen

Why can’t trauma survivors sleep — even when they’re exhausted?

In this Experts Explain Trauma episode, Lisa Tickel sits down with Dr. Iden to unpack what’s really happening in the brain and body when rest doesn’t come easily.


They explore how trauma rewires your body’s threat detection system, why the nervous system can’t “switch off,” and what to do when your brain starts racing the moment your head hits the pillow.


You’ll also learn about a simple evidence-based technique called constructive worry that can calm your mind before bed — helping you finally rest without your thoughts taking over.
